Hi,
We are planning to replace our current boiler and water tank, namely a Vaillant wall mounted THERMOcompact boiler and Vaillant Vantage VIH C120 sealed water tank.
After considerations from other threads and sales literature, I decided to seek quotes for the fitting of a Vaillant Ecotec 937. Following the heating engineers' visits, I was left with a few questions with which I was hoping the resident experts might be able to help with the following questions:
1. The diameter of the gas supply pipe from the gas meter to the current boiler is 22mm. The gas inlet diameter of the Ecotec 937 is 22mm. I estimate the gas supply run from the gas meter to the boiler to be 18-20m. Is the present 22mm supply pipe sufficient for the Ecotec 937?
2. The Ecotec 937 has an integral 10L expansion vessel. We have a 4-bedroom house with 2 bathrooms (1 with bath, 1 with shower) and 18 radiators. Could someone possibly tell me if the 937 expansion vessel is sufficient for this volume of water?
Thanks,
Mark
